Ingredients

4 medium parsnips, scrubbed and cut into 3cm chunks
1 large orange pepper, sliced into thick strips
1 onion, cut into 8 wedges
1 tbsp olive oil
3 tbsp Belazu tagine paste
250ml vegan vegetable stock
100g pitted green olives
400g can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
4 Medjool dates, halved lengthways and stoned
½ unwaxed lemon, zest and juice
200g wholewheat couscous
½ x 25g pack mint, leaves picked

Method

Turn the air fryer to 180ºC and make sure the grate is inserted in the base of the bowl. Toss the parsnips, pepper and onion in the oil and season. Tip into the air fryer and cook for 10 minutes, stirring halfway through.
Carefully remove the grate so the vegetables are sitting directly in the bowl. Add the tagine paste, stock, olives, chickpeas, dates and lemon zest. Stir well, then cook for another 12 minutes, stirring halfway. Add the lemon juice, then keep the tagine warm by turning the air fryer to its lowest heat setting.
Meanwhile, put a kettle on to boil and put the couscous in a heatproof bowl. Pour over 250ml just-boiled water. Cover and leave to absorb for 6 minutes. Fluff up with a fork, then serve in warm bowls with the stew. Scatter over the mint leaves.
